Chapter 1422 Double Act
"Rhine..." Qu Jianlei muttered softly, and an image of a female A-level emerged in his mind.
Count Haiyin's sixth daughter and youngest daughter had been saved by him and tried to help him.
The manor in Niaoming Stream was actually very nice, but it was a pity that he had to leave later.
He pondered for a moment before speaking, "What does she want?"
Although Jing Yuexin was not wearing palace clothes, she was still bright and attractive, but in the eyes of the imperial people, she might have lost a little weight.
She pondered for a moment and spoke, "When I was dying on the garbage planet, she arrived in time..."
She seldom talked about her experience. It was very embarrassing for her to have her limbs cut off while climbing the stairs.
Qu Jianlei knew that she didn't like to mention it and rarely asked about it.
Hearing her rarely mention this topic, he suddenly remembered something, "Do you know about a pink mecha?"
Jing Yuexin's brows furrowed slightly, "At that time, I pretended to be a reformed warrior... It's all a matter of personal preference."
This mystery has puzzled Qu Jianlei for many years, but now that he has the answer, it seems that it is not worth worrying about for so many years.
Probably because of growth.
But without the pink mecha, there wouldn't be so many variables.
If he had not received that injection of transformation potion, there is a high probability that he would have become a withered skeleton on the garbage planet at this moment.
It's always thanks to you, he nodded slightly, "The matter about Rhine...how do you want to deal with it?"
"She wants to..." Jing Yuexin spoke in a deep voice, "She knew your true identity, so she withstood a lot of pressure and didn't say anything."
"A lot of pressure" is just four words, but Qu Jianlei can clearly understand the heaviness and suffering involved.
Just like the word "labor pain", who can know how painful the person involved is?
Qu Jianlei picked up the wine glass, touched it with Jing Yuexin, and spoke calmly.
"I only blame her for rescuing you, I just want to make conditions... I agree to anything that doesn't touch the bottom line."
Jing Yuexin drank the wine glass in one gulp, "I want to recruit her into the team. I know you will definitely give her this face."
"But the problem is... Dogan has more people than me. If we start this, what will we do in the future?"
Whether they are her subordinates or Duogan's subordinates, they always want something when they follow the Supreme Being.
Before the digital phantom appeared, everyone might just want to hug a thick leg and live a better life.
If you're lucky, with a few words from the boss, you might be able to find the way to the top.
But the digital phantom appeared, and the boss followed the digital phantom... Who can give up higher demands?
Qu Jianlei was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "How can she compare with you...?"
One is a teammate who has been fighting together since they were weak, and the other is a sensible person who only joined after being defeated. Can this be the same?
However, Jing Yuexin shook her head and spoke seriously, "If there are no rules, there will be no rule. Is that what you said?"
"Well," Qu Jianlei picked up the wine glass, drank it down, and listened to her continue.
"The current digital phantom is no longer a grassroots team. How many people are watching... things must be done in a structured way."
"Haha," Qu Jianlei smiled nonchalantly, "We will deal with the specific situation on a case-by-case basis."
"There is no perfect rules and regulations in the world. Discussing things as they are is the fundamental way to solve problems... Who let me know her?"
"Okay," Jing Yuexin nodded and sighed quietly - this was not the answer she most wanted to hear.
At this moment, a tall and strong man came over with a wine glass and sat down opposite them.
"Both of you, excuse me for interrupting... I have some implementation ideas for near-earth jumps. Are you interested in knowing about them?"
The man was unshaven and unkempt, but he was indeed very tall, over 1.8 meters tall.
Such a height is definitely considered outstanding in the empire.
Qu Jianlei and Jing Yuexin looked at each other and smiled helplessly - people here really dare to take the initiative to sell.
But this kind of situation is really not uncommon. It happened several times tonight... Generally speaking, they are all looking for fat sheep.
Jing Yuexin ignored this person, but Qu Jianlei had to answer - Future Star did not do anything like this.
He shook his head and said calmly, "Sorry, we are not interested in new technologies."
When the tall man heard this, he suddenly became excited, "Why can't we talk about new technologies in the Dusk Bar? There are many people like this, right?"
This is indeed the case. There are not only old technologies in Dusk Bar, but also new technologies that try their luck.
If you can buy old patents, it’s normal to invest in new technologies, right?
The man didn't finish his words, "Besides, near-earth jump is not a new technology. This conjecture has been around for many years!"
Qu Jianlei touched his forehead helplessly, "There are many people who cheat money based on this guess... leave before I get angry!"
Are you kidding? Forget it if you talk about other things, near-earth jump...are you making a fuss?
"I'm definitely not a liar," a trace of helplessness flashed across the man's eyes, and he muttered something in a low voice before getting up and leaving.
This all seems like the normal reaction of a person who has hit a wall many times.
At this moment, a strong woman came over, holding a large glass of wine in her hand and letting out a wild laugh.
"Haha, Karl, are you using your clumsy methods to defraud money again?"
The man's face turned a little red, but he left without a hurry, "Wei Bo, you don't understand technology at all! I feel pathetic for you!"
"But there is no doubt that I live more successfully than you," the woman continued to laugh.
In the future star where elites are born, such a noisy scene is rare, and it can only be seen in the dusk bar.
Qu Jianlei and Jing Yuexin did not speak, just looked at the two coldly.
Not far from the two, Jia Shuiqing and Yuanyuan sat opposite each other, Hua Xiezi and Bentley were whispering.
Mu Guang was holding a glass of wine and strolling around.
Carl looked at Qu Jianlei again, "Sir, it only takes up a little of your time, why not try it?"
Mu Guang's consciousness came over, "Boss, these two people are very likely to be in the same group!"
Qu Jianlei also had such a guess, but he was not as sure as him.
In this case, he simply returned a consciousness, "Then you can measure these two?"
Gangs usually have other helpers behind them, even in the future star.
Is there no gray area in the R&D center? Impossible, so it is better to follow the clues and see who is behind the other party.
These gray forces can survive, they must have mastered a lot of secret intelligence, without this ability, they would have been wiped out long ago.
Mu Guang knew what he meant, but replied, "It's a bit abrupt for me to chat up with them, it's easy to alert them."
That's right, Qu Jianlei knew very well that these people who wander on the edge of the gray are extremely vigilant.
He glanced at Jing Yuexin, then said calmly, "Then give it a try?"
Jing Yuexin nodded lightly, "It's up to you."
"My lord," the sturdy woman interrupted, "This guy's stuff is really deceiving."
"Huh?" Qu Jianlei glanced at her and didn't say much, but just that look, the warning meaning was full.
The woman was silent when she saw this, and silently took two steps back.
Qu Jianlei raised his chin towards the tall and strong man opposite him, "Then tell me your idea?"
The man looked around and said embarrassedly, "Sir, can we change to a private room?"
Jing Yuexin raised her hand and called the bar waiter over, telling him to arrange a private room.
The waiter glanced at Carl and left calmly.
It is obvious that the waiters at the Dusk Bar are of high quality and will not talk too much.
The private room here is similar to the private room, but there is no door, but even so, it is much quieter.
The private room has a consumption limit of more than 2,000 silver dollars.
Although Qu Jianlei is not short of this little money, he can't help but have an idea in his mind-could it be a wine tout?
After the three of them sat down, the tall and strong man spoke, "My lords, do you know the principle of jump?"
Qu Jianlei and Jing Yuexin looked at each other and shook their heads.
They often use the teleportation array, but teleportation and jump... are two completely different systems.
But if you don't know, you don't know. There's no need to pretend. Let's see what this guy can say.
The tall and strong man was not surprised. Investors don't need to understand the profession. They just need to understand the wind direction and risks.
He nodded, "Then there's no need to talk about the principle. This is originally a top secret of the empire. I'll tell you the general idea..."
He was not polite and directly said that investors didn't need to know too much.
He talked for two minutes, using very easy-to-understand words.
Then Qu Jianlei looked at Jing Yuexin again and said calmly, "Continue."
The man was stunned for a moment and asked carefully, "Where did I not explain it clearly enough?"
"Is this a question of whether it is clear or not?" Qu Jianlei rubbed his eyebrows and said helplessly.
"Where is the plan, the market research report, the feasibility analysis, and the risk estimation?"
"You can't just rely on your mouth and talk for two minutes and ask us to agree, right?"
"Huh," Jing Yuexin snorted, "We don't ask to know the detailed principle, but the solution must be more specific, right?"
The attitudes of the two people were just short of saying that the other party was getting something for nothing.
"Specific plans... Of course there are," the tall and strong man answered without hesitation.
"But..." He hesitated and said, "Are you two really interested?"
Well acted! Qu Jianlei is no stranger to this situation.
It's nothing more than packaging himself as a researcher who is afraid of people stealing secrets, and teasing people step by step.
In the best place in China, he has seen many such people.
There are people who look for investment with various detailed plans, but that is the type of storytelling, and there is no need to say more about this.
There are also many people who cherish their own things, especially some solutions cannot be patented, so it is more appropriate to hide them.
But now, he just smiled coldly, "Didn't I tell you to continue?"
The man hesitated and said, "This investment may cost billions."
